The month begins with a little excitement, as Venus and Mars align in Virgo. This energy will spark up the romance and can also be channeled into creative productivity. By mid-November, both planets will be in Libra, which is a whole different ballgame. Venus in Libra enhances all manner of social interaction and can also enhance artistic endeavors. But Mars in Libra is a bit more problematic, as the urge to “do your own thing” may come into sharp contrast with
your desire to please others. This could certainly complicate things around Thanksgiving, I imagine!
Mercury, the planet of communication, moves into deep, intense Scorpio right at the start of the month. This will be useful for investigation and research. This energy is also related to secrets… which are usually exposed when Mercury goes into Sagittarius, which happens on November 20.
The biggest news of the month is Saturn in Sagittarius square to Neptune in Pisces, which will be in effect from about mid-month all the way into early December. A word to the wise: don’t be surprised if you find it difficult to see eye to eye with others during this period. It can be very frustrating, both personally and in business. Clashes arise from differences in ideology and beliefs. This may have significant political ramifications. It can also bring about soul searching and deep introspection, as we try to match up our dreams with our realities. Patience and stillness will lead to
clarity.
The New Moon in Scorpio on November 11 can help us get in touch with our “inner warrior” and find the courage to tackle challenges and forge ahead. And there are a couple of truly positive days leading up to the Full Moon in exciting Gemini on November 25. Just remember to keep your cool getting ready for Thanksgiving, as things could get a little scattered with all the energy flying around!
Opportunity Dates: November 1, 3, 11, 16, 20, 23, 24, 25 and 30.
